Herbert Hoover Flood Inundation Mapping and Flood Frequency Report

Christianson D. 2004. Herbert Hoover Flood Inundation Mapping and Flood Frequency Report. U.S. Geological Survey

The purpose of this task was to recompute hydrologic and hydraulic analyses of flood inundation and flood frequency, and create geographic information systems (GIS) data layers for an unnamed tributary to the West Branch Wapsinonoc Creek, hereafter referred to as Hoover Creek, that flows within the Herbert Hoover National Historic Site (NHS) located in the community of West Branch in Cedar County, Iowa. This task will be used to develop the Proper Functioning Condition (PFC) and fluvial geomorphology, which were identified within the Inventory and Monitoring Program (I&M) of the National Park Service as priority concerns at NHS.
